The Hilton Miami Beach is set to open in early 2027 at 2000 Park Ave., linking five historic buildings that span nearly an entire city block. The properties date from 1938 to 1953 and were vacant for years after a 2012 fire.
The buildings show Miami Beach’s shift from Streamline Moderne to postwar MiMo design. The original Collins Park Hotel, designed by Henry Hohauser and completed in 1939, is the best known. It has a curved glass entrance pavilion and its original “2000” address feature. During World War II, it housed military personnel of the U.S. Army Air Forces Technical Training Command.
The group also includes the former Adams Hotel, designed by L. Murray Dixon in 1938, and the Tyler Hotel, designed by Albert Anis in 1940. Two former apartment projects, the Copley Terrace Apartments and the S&M Apartments, complete the collection, along with the Lord Charles and Gamshire buildings, which Anis designed in 1953 as a pair.
Interiors will draw on Art Deco and midcentury styles, using soft pinks and greens, polished metals and geometric patterns. Public spaces will echo the area’s historic cafes and diners, and the project includes rooftop pools and open-air gathering areas.
Bruce Siegel, vice president of operations and general manager of Hilton Miami Beach, said the property offers guests a chance to experience nearly 90 years of architectural history in one place.
